You'll never find me searching for your love You cut those ties when you turned your back on me Now its your turn to suffer You have no power over me I made it I made it here without you You won't ever hear me beg I'm standing stronger since you left You walked away I'll shout it out These hands they lace together We're stronger now No one can save you now I took a stand and I'll take the fall We're not backing down We live and die to watch this all Turn to dust Will you still play with fire once you've burnt every bridge that you've come across? Will you still paint yourself gold once the whole world has seen you for all you are? If things get better I'll still remember I won't forgive you That's more than you'd ask of me And when its over We'll all grow colder I won't forgive you that's more than you'd ask of me And when you finally see I will be there to say that I told you so I saw who you were when you sat with the vultures Oh how you've hid your feathers well my friend You know the fall is harder the further you climb I'll drag you down to hell with my last breath My hands they bleed from clawing at the stones I'll tear you down from your pedastal You'll learn to hate yourself I've found the truth Its that we make our own path No one can carve these steps for you Stop searching right now and put a hand to your heart all that you've needed was there from the start I'm stronger than I was I don't need you anymore I'm done looking up to you my feet are planted I'll make my own sunshine

The taste of ashes never was so sweet As when I burnt the bridges Between you and me Take your sorries to the grave I'm done with you after all of this/ is the last time you'll hear from me bitch This will be the end of us You watched me drown This house of cards is burning I'll press you to the flames So join me in this final dance around the issue I'm choking on the smoke just so that I can watch your heart stop Years turned to nothing when you found that/ I had what you wanted You were always the knife in my back You're so see-through Go speak your lies that's alright I've got all the love I need Right here by my side The real ones never leave Three filthy words fell from your lips we shared the lie And I swear that if I get my hands around your throat/ I'll silence your deceipt I'm turning away Take your promises to the fucking grave There's nothing left for you to say to me Let's get it in Breathe in the words best friends choke on the lies that you fed to us I hope you choke

The Letter M 04:43

Fuck what you heard about me The smell of fear excites me That was my only motivation They'll never hear you scream This ends here The dead commit no crimes My revenge Watch me burn These are the lives you've set ablaze Watch me burn I will feel no penitence You bound me in shackles to the grave that she filled On the day I find you Death will come as a relief I swear that each sunrise is fraying these ties that bind I cling to threads I'm so afraid of these changes that I keep seeing in my reflection You'd be so ashamed if you could see The blood on my hands Look I took them all for you Washed from these pages I always wonder What if I was stronger That day I failed you I couldn't save you No I can't Just let this knife slide out of my fucking hands Save me From this monster I've become This demon I can't control Promise me that you won't forget Hold onto who I used to be Watch me burn Burn away Watch me burn Turn to gray

The Further 04:48

Sew my eyes shut Our dreams suffocate in this place beyond the veil blanketed in dark I cannot remember what my life was like before these walls crashed down on me When they fell they didn't make a sound We fall so silent Stop these walls from screaming out my name I'd shut myself inside if I wasn't scared of the company I've seen this place before An empty hallway with the grandfather clock These pictures wither at the sight of me I'm not at home inside my skin So could I stay here for the night Would you be my escape from the wolves we never knew A willingness to judge I took the knife in hand All I needed was a crutch Show me, show me whatever lights there are that I can't see I don't believe we're ever surfacing with these hearts in tact I've seen your face before An empty smile and eyes that wander My Midas touch can only create stone I think its best you keep your distance Tear the words from my lips Strangling If I were to shout/ you wouldn't hear a sound Behind this wall of glass

Double Tap 03:46

Contamination awakens all the fallen Infecting the beautiful We strip the flesh We drank the life Suffering is all that's left Curse the day we harnessed death Tempting the balance to fall through The fault was shared between us We wiped the sun from the sky Our voices ring so empty I'll never see the sun the same way As I did when you were with me What good is running when we'll never make it My only hope is that you'll forgive me All I need another day just you and me Maddened souls that feast upon the living Ravenous and our eyes are set on you Shiver and tremble Another part of you awakens Our only drive is to devour Corpse cry out to you Forever lost in this nightmare

In the end what's there left of us to love? I can't breathe I swear you burn me out And with all we've been through I just can't stand you I wonder when you'll tell him about last night I told you that I could be a place to hang your head last night We played our game again The webs that you spin through your fingertips all burn to the ground Sometimes its not even clear what the fuck you're here for I guess I just love hurting you Fuck Come on don't pull your punches We both know you're out for blood Lipstick stains like a fucking murder scene We both know you're out for blood Crumbled pages dance around your bed A certain type of emptiness that pressed its lips to your legs Hold your own hand by the fire Its getting awful cold out here Don't speak a word of the mistakes we make each time we fall back into eachothers' arms Back and forth fuck and forget-me-not again but this time we'll make it work You stayed the night for what seemed like old time's sake You took the cab and the hangover too You're probably wondering what it is that I wrote this for But I just want you to know You were my biggest mistake I left this here for you In the hopes you'd change I won't forgive you But there's room to grow
